Not canola, nor soybean because both have an off taste to many people.
The best choice is high oleic sunflower, which is more healthful than
regular sunflower or peanut, but regular sunflower and peanut are both
decent tasting (very tasteless).

Trader Joe's has high oleic sunflower oil for $3.88/liter. That's about the only oil I ever use.
